Butt Hinges

What is a Butt Hinge?

Butt hinges are a standard hinge for doors and cabinets which compromise of two leaves connected by a pin, where one leaf is affixed to the door jamb, and the other to the door itself. As one of the most common types of hinge in use today, butt hinges can be found in almost any establishment, and can last for many years.

Benefits of using a Butt Hinge

Good quality butt hinges when maintained and used properly will last many decades even in heavy traffic areas.

Wide variety of styles, colours and finishes
